Description
VERIFICATION OF TRANSLATION International Patent Application No. PCT/EP2004/005327 by Knorr-Bremse Systeme flr Nutzfahrzeuge GmbH I, Daniel HANCOCK MA, translator to RWS Group Ltd of Europa House, Marsham Way, Gerrards Cross, Buckinghamshire, England, am the translator of the documents attached and I state that the following is a true translation to the best of my knowledge and belief of International Patent Application No. PCT/EP2004/005327 filed 18 May 2005. DATED this 17th day of November 2005 D. HANCOCK For and on behalf of RWS Group Ltd WO 2004/102023 - 1 - PCT/EP2004/005327 Pneumatically or electromotively operable disk brake The present invention relates to a pneumatically or electromotively operable disk brake according to the 5 precharacterizing clause of claim 1. The principle construction of a disk brake of this type is known, for example, from DE 195 15 063 C2. 10 Here, the brake application device has two control spindles which are mounted displaceably in the brake caliper and bear in each case one pressure piece at their end which faces the brake disk, to which pressure piece a brake lining is fastened which makes contact 15 with the brake disk in the function case. The brake linings are anchored in the brake carrier and have force applied to them by the pressure pieces. In order to protect the interior of the brake caliper 20 and the control spindles against soiling, a bellows in the form of a folding bellows is fastened to the respective pressure piece, which bellows is fixed at the other end to a closure plate, by means of which the brake caliper is closed. To this extent, the closure 25 plate is an integral constituent part of the brake caliper. The bellows can also act directly on the brake caliper if no closure plate is provided. Disk brakes of the generic type, that is to say 30 customarily mounted in commercial vehicles, are subjected to considerable loading in operation, in particular with regard to thermal loading. The frictional heat which is generated during braking is transmitted to a significant extent to the individual - 2 components of the disk brake, in particular also to the bellows of the respective pressure piece, which bellows acts as a sealing element. 5 The bellows which have been used up to now consist of a plastic, preferably of silicone. However, it would be desirable to use a material which is even more suitable for said bellows, in order to extend the maintenance intervals with regard to the bellows. 10 It is also desirable to use material which can be subjected to greater mechanical loading and is even less sensitive to soiling and damage, as can be produced, for example, by lining abrasion and stones, 15 sand or the like which fly around during driving. Although attempts have already been made to reduce or preclude the mechanical loading via a cover which is pushed over the bellows, for example in the form of a 20 helical spring made from metal, this leads to additional thermal loading of the bellows as a result of a build-up of heat, with the result that this solution is entirely unsatisfactory. 25 The present invention is therefore based on the object of developing a disk brake of the generic type, in such a way that its service life is increased and repair costs are reduced as a result. 30 This object is achieved by a disk brake having the features of claim 1. According to said claim, the bellows is composed of metal.
- 3 A disk brake which is configured in this way is distinguished, in particular, by the fact that its service life is increased substantially, that is to say the repair times, after which replacement of the 5 bellows owing to wear is required, are substantially longer than has been the case up to now. This naturally results in cost advantages, as firstly the down times of the commercial vehicle are reduced and secondly assembly and material costs are lowered. 10 According to one advantageous development of the invention, there is provision for the bellows to be configured as a folding bellows, for example in the form of a lamellar or fluted bellows. Here, at least 15 one, but preferably a plurality of flutes or folds are to be realized, in order to ensure a sufficient spring action. Although metal folding bellows are known per se, for 20 example from general textbooks such as Roloff/Matek: "Maschinenelemente" [Machine elements], 14th edition, pages 632, 633, and although a metal folding bellows 45 is known from DE 195 11 287 Al, the metal folding bellows shown there in no way serves for sealing, as 25 there is a further folding bellows made from an elastomer with the designation for this purpose in the application. Rather, the folding bellows made from metal serves to produce a torsionally strong connection for transmitting torsional moments from the tensile 30 stress force emanating from the threaded spindle between the force transmission plate with projection and the threaded spindle. Here, there is no connection to the brake caliper or to a part which is connected to the brake caliper, such as a cover which closes an - 4 opening in the brake caliper. Therefore, counter to the recommendations of the manufacturers, a metal folding bellows is used in this document as an element which transfers torque and not for instance as a 5 connection between a pressure piece and a brake caliper or a part which is connected to the brake caliper, for sealing off the interior of the brake caliper. Metal folding bellows are also known from US 3 512 497. 10 In this document, there is also no provision in any way, however, to use the metal folding bellows as a sealing element between a brake caliper and a pressure piece. 15 The use of a metal folding bellows in the manner according to the invention has not been considered previously, presumably since it was thought that the torque which the metal folding bellows exerts in each case on the control spindles on account of its spring 20 action between the pressure piece and the brake caliper stands in the way of said use, in particular as the spring action and thus the torque change continuously as the lining wear increases and the folding bellows extends increasingly. According to the idea of the 25 invention, however, it is surprisingly entirely possible to govern this effect, to be precise in particular if the folding bellows is designed in such a way that the thread holding moment which is produced by the spring force of the metallic folding bellows and 30 which the folding bellows exerts on the control spindles is so small that the adjusting function of the adjusting device on the adjusting spindles that the adjusting function of the adjusting device remains ensured by rotation of the control spindles and is not - 5 impaired or is not impaired significantly or is not impaired to a practically considerable extent. Only if this condition is fulfilled does the function of adjustment remain ensured to a sufficient extent. The 5 spring force is preferably smaller than 1000 N, in particular smaller than 800 N. These force details relate to two folding bellows. Per folding bellows, the following preferably holds: spring force < 500 N, in particular < 400 N. 10 It is also conceivable that the folding bellows is designed in such a way that, in the event of unworn brake linings and in the event of worn brake linings, it acts as a tension spring (or as a compression 15 spring) on the pressure spindles. The folding bellows is preferably manufactured from a noncorroding metal. Here, lightweight metal or, in particular, stainless steel are possible. The folding 20 bellows is manufactured, in particular, with the use of a laser welding process. In addition to the high thermal and mechanical loadability, a bellows of this type is distinguished by 25 the fact that it is deformable in a fluidtight and permanently elastic manner. The latter permits the multiple use of the bellows, that is to say it can also be used in the case of a 30 plurality of brake lining changes, it being possible for said bellows to be deformed back into its initial state after the brake lining has been replaced.
- 6 As the shape and configuration of the novel bellows are expediently adapted to those of a known bellows, there is also the theoretical possibility of retrofitting. In the case of a necessary change, the novel bellows 5 can therefore be used. The metal bellows as a constituent part of the original equipment can of course also be replaced per se by a novel metal bellows. 10 As a result of the adaptation of the novel bellows to the shape of the previously used bellows, it is also not necessary to change the other components of the disk brake to which the bellows can be connected. Rather, with appropriate adaptation, the novel bellows 15 can also theoretically be installed into an existing disk brake, in particular into the available installation space. It can, however, also be necessary to modify the installation conditions slightly, as the metal bellows is generally somewhat longer than a 20 silicone bellows. The production of the novel bellows is also very simple and inexpensive, as use can be made of known technologies, which permit economical production, above 25 all under the aspect that bellows of this type are series-produced products which are used in large numbers. On account of the extension (tensile and compressive) 30 rigidity of the bellows, the control spindle which is connected to the pressure piece, guided in the brake caliper and configured as a threaded pipe is secured against unintended rotation as a result of vibrations and the like, with the result that, in some - 7 circumstances, a frictional brake which has previously been required for this purpose can be omitted, at any rate in the event of a design as a pure compression spring. In some circumstances, the bellows can also be 5 combined with a sealing ring section, at least at one of its ends. The metal bellows can be fastened to the pressure piece by welding, soldering, roll forming, pinching, pressing 10 with or without a press ring or by being held by means of a plate for thermal insulation which can be fixed to the pressure piece. The connection to the brake caliper or the connected 15 closure plate can be effected in the same way, it being possible for the closure plate to have a pot-shaped depression, to the base of which one end of the bellows is fastened, while the other end is fastened to the pressure piece. 20 In this case, the bellows extends coaxially with respect to the control spindle which is arranged on the pressure piece. 25 According to a further advantageous embodiment, in the event of unworn brake linings, the bellows has an at least partially rolled up cover in its initial position, in such a way that, as the lining wear increases, the rolled up region of the folding bellows 30 can be extended gradually out of the rolled up region. In the event of a lining change, this "single use bellows" is then also replaced by a new one.
- 8 Further advantageous configurations of the invention are characterized in the subclaims. Exemplary embodiments of the invention will be 5 described in the following text using the appended drawings, in which: fig. 1 shows a partially sectioned plan view of a disk brake, 10 figs. 2, 3 show in each case different exemplary embodiments of a component of the disk brake, which component is shown in longitudinal section in a detailed view, 15 figs. 4a-4c show in each case different ways of fastening a bellows to the brake caliper of the disk brake, figs. 5a-5c show in each case different ways of fastening the bellows to a pressure 20 piece of the disk brake; figs. 6a, b show enlargements of details of the disk brake from fig. 1, in different operating states with unworn and worn linings; and 25 figs. 7a-c show different operating states of the folding bellows with a different lining wear state. Figure 1 shows a pneumatically operable disk brake 30 which has a brake caliper 1 which is configured as a sliding caliper and surrounds a brake disk 3 in its upper circumferential region. In principle, electromotive actuation of the disk brake is also possible.
-9 Brake linings 4 are arranged on both sides of the brake disk 3, of which brake linings 4 in each case one is fastened to or bears against pressure pieces 5 which 5 are shown here on the right and with which the associated brake lining 4 can be pressed against the brake disk 3. For this purpose, a brake application device 2 is 10 provided which is operated by a rotary lever and is connected to the control spindles 10 which bear the pressure pieces 5 and are guided axially movably in the brake caliper 1. 15 To compensate for air play, every control spindle 10 or every pressure piece 5 is assigned control spindles 10 for adjusting the lining wear, one of said control spindles 10 being provided with an adjusting device 6 which is coupled to the rotary lever. The two control 20 spindles 10 are synchronized here by means of a chain 23 (cf. also fig. 6). On its side which faces the brake disk 3, the brake caliper 1 is largely closed by a closure plate 7 which 25 is pierced in the region of the passage of the control spindle 10. Here, pots 8 which in each case extend into the interior of the brake caliper 1 are connected to the 30 closure plate 7, which pots 8 in turn form a fastening element for in each case one bellows 9 which is connected on the other side to the associated pressure piece 5.
- 10 If at least one pressure piece 5 are likewise provided on the side which lies opposite the brake application device 2, the latter can likewise be sealed off in each case with respect to the brake caliper 1 by a bellows 9 5 according to the invention made from a continuous metal sheet. In the exemplary embodiment shown in accordance with figures 1 and 2, the bellows 9 which surrounds the 10 control spindle 10 concentrically is configured as a folding bellows in the form of a fluted bellows, it being composed of a thermally and/or mechanically highly loadable material, preferably metal. 15 Hermetic sealing both of the interior of the brake caliper 1 and also of the control spindle 10 and of the associated adjusting device 6 is ensured by the bellows 9. 20 As has already been mentioned, the folding bellows 9 is formed from a noncorroding metal, for example from a stainless steel, a lightweight metal or the like. A metal sheet of continuous type is also conceivable. 25 While the bellows 9 which is shown in figure 2 is configured as a fluted bellows, the bellows 9 is designed as a lamellar or diaphragm bellows in the exemplary embodiment which is shown in figure 3. 30 Figures 4a to 4c show different ways of fastening the bellows 9 to the closure plate 7 or to the pot 8 which is connected to the latter, for which an annular groove 23 has been made in the crossmember.
- 11 It can thus be seen in figure 4a that that edge of the bellows 9 which faces away from the pressure piece 5 is flange connected to the pot end, a groove 11 which is rolled in in the flange region providing a connection 5 which can absorb high tensile and compressive forces. It can be seen in figure 4b that the end of the bellows 9 is centered radially and is brazed to the edge of the pot 8, a stop 12 being provided at the outer edge of 10 the pot 8 for the axial positioning of the bellows 9, which stop 12 extends radially inward and on which the correspondingly shaped end of the bellows 9 is supported. 15 Radial centering of the bellows end can likewise be seen in figure 4c. Here, too, the bellows 9 is axially secured on one side by the stop 12, while the fastening to the pot 8 is effected by a flange bushing 18 which is pushed onto the stop 12 and the correspondingly 20 shaped edge of the bellows 9, which edge bears against said stop 12, and is subsequently flange connected. The connection possibilities shown are not restricted to the use of a pot 8, but can also be carried out if 25 the connection is carried out directly on the closure plate 7. Finally, figures 5a to 5c show different possible ways of connecting/coupling the bellows 9 to the pressure 30 piece 5. Thus, according to figure 5a, the connection is provided by that edge region of the bellows 9 which faces the pressure piece 5 bearing against the - 12 circumferential face of the pressure piece 5, which circumferential face has an approximately wedge-shaped circumferential web which serves as a die for a ring 14 which is pushed onto the edge region of the bellows 9 5 and subsequently produces a form-fitting connection by being pinched in accordance with the shape of the web 13. In the example according to figure 5b, the pressure 10 piece 5 has a concentric annular gap 15 on the side which faces the bellows 9, into which annular gap 15 the edge of the bellows 9 is inserted and connected to the pressure piece 5 by calking, soldering or other fastening types. 15 It can be seen in figure 5c that that edge of the bellows 9 which faces the pressure piece 5 is flange connected to a connecting plate 16, the connecting plate 16 being a constituent part of a thermal 20 insulation 17 which is connected fixedly to the pressure piece 5 and which affords thermal protection of the appropriate components of the disk brake. Although metal folding bellows are known per se, 25 consideration has up to now not been given to the use of a metal folding bellows in commercial vehicle brakes, presumably since it was thought that the torque which the metal folding bellows 9 exerts in each case on the control spindles on account of its spring action 30 stands in the way of said use, in particular as the spring action and thus the torque change continuously as the lining wear increases and the folding bellows 9 extends increasingly.
- 13 Figs. 6 and 7 illustrate the effect in principle. Fig. 7a shows the state with unworn brake linings 4, in which state the folding bellows 9 acts as a compression spring between the brake caliper and the pressure 5 pieces or on the pressure pieces, for example with an exemplary value A of approximately 350 N. At the end, in the event of completely worn brake linings 4, in contrast, it acts, as it were in the "completely extended state", as a tension spring between the brake 10 caliper 1 and the pressure pieces 5, for example with an exemplary value B of approximately 210 N (fig. 7c). It exerts no spring action somewhere in the middle between these positions, that is to say its effect is neutral (0 N; fig. 7b). In addition, in each case FD(2) 15 acts, for example, in each case with approximately 1000 N, that is to say the force of the bridge spring or bridge springs 20, that is to say their force and the forces of the two folding bellows are in each case added correspondingly. A design of this type does not 20 impede the adjusting function of the brake to a practically considerable extent and protects the interior of the brake caliper, that is to say, in particular, the brake application device which is operated here by rotary lever, with eccentric rotary 25 lever arrangement and bridge 21. As an alternative, it is also conceivable to design the folding bellows as a pure tension spring throughout with regard to the pressure pieces, if said bellows is 30 of correspondingly compressed construction.
